    Over Planning Again

    I love the Varíante Espiritual from Valença. Beautiful and easy ALSA bus ride from Santiago. Just one hill to speak of right before Armenteira and the next stage is one of my favorites of all Caminos Ruta da Pedra e da Auga. The Sanabrés from Ourense is also easy to get to and less strenuous...

    Carry your backpack please.

    The burdens I carry in my heart far outweigh any that I could carry on my back. We are all having this conversation again. And probably will again.

    Camino Portuguese or Camino de Invierno

    Yes, absolutely. Since 2019 I have walked the Invierno 4 times, relatively alone and I'm 69 years and counting. Many women on this forum have walked it alone as well. Every day there is more infrastructure and more Peregrinos walking, though it still is one of the Caminos less traveled. A...

    Diversity on the Camino

    This is fabulous & would scare the living daylights out of all the Jesuits I have ever known. Made me laugh out loud & still laughing!

    Those BRIGHT motion activated lights, or how to pee in 5 seconds

    I recently noticed that the newly renovated Albergues including the Monasterio Sobrado dos Monxes on the Norte have green inconspicuous lights strategically placed on the ceiling. Enough to walk safely in the dark.

    Those BRIGHT motion activated lights, or how to pee in 5 seconds

    Alas, Pilgrims dancing in the dark…the new Camino movie, coming in a limited fashion to a theater near you. Will it increase the Peregrino foot traffic on the Caminos?

    What I lost on the Camino

    In the days not that long ago when Peregrinos waited for hours to get their Compostela while in the line at La Oficina de Peregrinos, I said to one of the Peregrinas with whom I repeatedly coincided with on the Camino, “I can’t believe you & I have the same buff, it’s my favorite and I lost it...

    What I lost on the Camino

    I know a Peregrina from Oz who just managed to lose 2 ponchos. @OzAnnie, you have one left 😂.

    Hello raincoat, my old friend

    I was walking the end of the Norte during the “coastal event” mid month. We went from 90F heat to strong, never ending hard rain with 50-80 km winds. Wet to the bone!!! And so happy. Best buy of my entire life was the €4 last remaining poncho bought in the nick of time in the bookstore+ store in...
